IMHO, those scoops look at home only on dual quad tunnel rams and blowers. If you really want to run that kind of a scoop, it can give you the excuse to switch to a TR setup. No down side to running a TR on a street/strip car, except maybe gas mileage.


I don`t want a tunnel ram and I`ve seen it on some fast cars w/a single carb so was wondering if anyone on here had any sucess w/it and I see someone has. I thaught about the earlier one offered on here but didn`t think it would look at home on a mopar.

Yeah, I didn't want a tunnel ram either but after talking with several guys that were running them and how consistent they were I changed my mind and just went for it. Besides if you are already sticking something out of your hood what's the difference? Especially when they are worth about 30 HP.
